Altamont Landfill FA2 Phases 6 and 7 Project

Sukut worked on this two-year contract that included two phases of cell development at Altamont Landfill in Livermore, CA. Phase 6 consisted of about 1.3 million cubic yards of excavation, which went to stockpiles, as well as engineered fill. Phase 7 holds about 1.3 million cubic yards of excavation, with the majority going as engineered fill. The overall project has over 100,000 tons of imported pea gravel to make various layers of cell floor, along with 60,000 cubic yards of clay placement, and about 150,000 cubic yards of a one-inch screened material for operations layer. Sukut also performed numerous surface drainage improvements, which consisted of 10,000 tons of rip rap placement, and 24 to 42-inch of storm drain pipe installation.
